Question

[nicholas79]

I told my friend I was bi and he is a friend of a guy that I like, so at school when we go to lunch we all sit at the same table together, and it is awkward sitting next to each other, because he doesnt know that I like him. The question is, I want to tell him that I like him, but I dont want to make it even more awkward between us.

Always a tough situation I'm afraid. However, you do not need to complicate it. Try and catch him on his own and begin with a normal conversation - making the question the entire conversation can seem awkward at times. Try and explain that you don't want to make things weird when asking him, and that if he says no they can put it behind them knowing once and for all. The trick is not to be a nervous wreck and not to be too overconfident - just ask him as you would any other question. Being very curious at one time, I have done this once and failed miserably, as I almost declared my undying love for a guy (even if I just wanted to tell him I liked him). Others will have more experience but this is just my input :)

First of all.. find out of this guy is interested in other men. If he's not, completely forget any idea about telling him.

I mean, nothing wrong with being gay, but so many people make fun of it these days... it's not worth risking it, especially if there's no chance he will have the same feelings.

Not sure i youd care to hear a girls perspective, but after i told a girl i liked her she told me she wasnt interested in girls at all. I feel like that hurt our friendship and i wish i hadnt told her. So u should definately see if he likes guys as well, if he doesnt and you still want to go for it...good luck.

You should tell him you're bi first before you think about telling him you like him and see his reaction to that, this could give some indication of whether you should tell him or not and it would give him time to get his thoughts into order. You should also find out if he is interested in guys, if he's not then yes things could get very awkward.
If you're going to tell him then just get him while he's on his own and be confident, try not to let him see that you're nervous. Respect what he says and don't push him, give him time if he needs it. Like the user above said, tell him you don't want anything to change between you if he says no. That you don't want things to be awkward and you want to stay friends.

i would do some research on him and if he's straight then don't bother with him. crushes go and come so don't bother trying get something tantalizing, because you may just mess up a friendship
